Hello!

Well isn't this website / game a blast from the past! I had a nostalgic notion to look into this game roughly 12-14 years after last playing it and was exstatic when I found it was still active!

I know back then there was regular events / leagues for the beginner racers, or at least the ones that were not producing +1 or +2 second lap times off the world records! I noticed the forum for this section was, for another word, dead. Hence why I am posting this here.

Any help would be appreciated or anyone that runs servers with regular clean racers would be great to get back into this. I remember in the day I was a member of a group that regularly raced in passworded servers but my goodness me thats a very long time ago!

Glad to be back and maybe see some of you on the track.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Fair enough.

I aint buying parallel or bootcamp for it. No point.

Might just have to restore my old laptop and just have LFS on it.

I haven't been on here in ages.

Just purchased a Mac. I take it LFS won't run on a Mac?

tbh these days wrc isn't as good without Subaru, Mitsubishi, Lancia or Audi. Mostly Ford v Citroen
Unless any of them return I'm probably not going to play any WRC games

This is very true, even if just the Mitsubishi's and the Scooby's returned it would be far more entertaining.

Quote from zeugnimod :

Yeah, I doubt as well. Sorry.

Sent Jason a message, got a reply to join the FOX League, might just do that! See you on the track.

Quote from GreyBull [CHA] :

Don't know, really. The rallye is so close to home that i'll sort up everything in very last minute(like the day before or something like that).

But AFAIK you have to pay a pass in order to get to the spectator points. In Germany it was like 15€ for the whole week-end(absolutely not sure about that though, it was 4 years ago).

Now that is cheap! We have to be 100 pound here for the whole weekend.

Quote from GreyBull [CHA] :

One thing is clear, the couldn't be bothered to either add you to their roster ... selves official LFSW wise.

WB anyway, although I've never heard of you TBH

I have remember there name, Sonic Realmracing or something along those lines, i was never really 'known' to be honest just when i was here i was more of a forum start rather than a racing star!

I was only on there training roster as well but since i've been away for over a year i highly doubt i'd still be there!

Ahh my bad about the wrong section, maybe a mod could move it for me thanks?

Ohh ouch Klutch, that's one extreme to the other! I would still follow though if they didn't have Rally GB still great to watch on the tele.

GreyBull, thats sounds amazing. Do you have to pay expensive prices to get into spectator points or is it fairly reasonable. We were always talking about travelling to another event would be good fun.

Quote from boothy :

Wow really, I'd never heard of WRC before.

Yeah keep going away and coming back, great excuse for pointless threads.

WRC is shit and has been for the past few years.

Sure we all would if we could.

It's more dirty and you see less action as a spectator.

Never been, good for you.

Pointless threads? Yes give me a valid reason why this is pointless.

WRC is shit? Ahrite ok, and where is reasoning. I love it how you moan about something but have no reason behind it. Nice mature of you.

You see less action? Quite frankly, i would rather sit and watch 100+ cars go around tight corners at speed in some great looking cars getting some sideways action and normally seeing at least one of into a ditch, a roll or a big accident seeing cars pushed to there limits, and going over big jumps at 100+ mph. Than seeing the same 20-40 people going round the same circuit several times where they are pretty much glued to the track, with barely no excitement what so ever, and just seeing them go ZOOOOOOM and that's it.

So, instead of just saying, pointless and shit. Where is your reasoning.

Just to clarify as well that WRC stands for - World Rally Championship - incase you didn't know!

Well i remember one of my first threads being about Rallying, but i don't think it ever actually lifted off. So, now that i have returned why not try again?

Anyone following the WRC this year, or is anyone more locally going to rally's in Britain and Ireland?

Anyone ever take part, or would want to take part?

And what is your views on rallying compared to other motor sport?

Personally i think it's one of the best and most adrenaline pumping motor sport you can get, maybe because i've been involved in it from a very young age and the fact i take part in it, but as a whole spectating as well just a lot more entertaining in my eyes.

On to the WRC looks like Loeb has it in the bag with four rounds to go as long as he doesn't do anything stupid! Ogier has had a really good year though and given Loeb a run for his money, lets just hope next year we might see a closer battle at the top and not let it be a one horse race!

Anyone ever been to a WRC event? I'm heading to the WRC GB in Wales and can't wait!

Quote from Michalxo :

Welcome back :-)
The best you can do nowadays is to join some league

I may well do that. I was in a team before stopping LFS, and i can't for the life of me remember which one it was, and who was in it. Will need to hunt them down and have a chat, but after all my time away i think a beginner league might be the easiest option just now!

Thanks for the welcomes as well!

Ahh good stuff. I just remember it being over run with Cruise Servers that's.

A few faces around here i remember glad to see the old ones are still around. See you on the track, maybe

Well i haven't played this game in over a year now! Thought i would downlaod it onto my laptop and presto the connection and graphics is so much better! So, here i am, back! Not that any of you will remember me right enough, maybe banister and zak_mull

Is it still played as much as when i left about August 09.

Anyone following this?

Seasons done and dusted right enough, but still something to talk about

Very nice "The Very End."

Cheers

Ofcourse but no one can tell you if you'll like it or not or if it's worth it or not, that's all.

I was really only wanting general oppinions such as if there is too many stupid folk on the road, or all the servers are dead etc...i enjoyed the game before so don't see why i wouldn't now, it was more for the "community" point of view.

I probably will end up playing anyway, but just wanted other peoples oppinions. Is that not what forums are for? Discussion?

Quote from DevilDare :

(Update wise) (S3 and Rockingham has been announced, + another new car)

Never seen your update. I remeber when i was here they said S3 wouldn't be for nearly 4 years or so. When has it been announced for?

Will need to give it a go again, get down the DFP from the loft and set it all up!

I remember Redline Racing was it, is that server still around? I liked that one.

Wow, i'm back after a long year.

I'm guessing nothing has happend regarding this subject?

Hmmm....more cruise servers and stupid people is definatley not a good sign.

Still might come back, there is bound to be a few good servers out there.

Anyone into Rallying in real life i mean. Does anyone on here follow the SRC (Scottish Rally Championship?) or just like to get involved?

Lets start up a thread

After a long year or more away from LFS. Yes, i know how did i survive, but i managed it!

Anyway just a wee question. How much has LFS come on? I'm thinking about getting back into it. Porbablo a stupid question to be asking, but worth getting back in yes or no? Are all the cruise servers still in existence? They were really annoying back in the day.

Why are Polish people like God?


There everywhere!



(People from UK would understand this)

Ahhh thanks...lol


No it is me and one of my polish workers...call each other names to put on the weekly rota.
